AEM® Cold Air Intake System (Polish) - 99-05 VW Golf IV GTi VR6

The AEM Cold Air intake system relocates the filter outside of the engine compartment to deliver the coolest air inlet temperatures possible. Cooler air carries more oxygen, which translates into a more intense explosion in the combustion chamber to create more horsepower and torque. But that's only part of the power equation. Tuning the inlet pipe in length and diameter to match the engine's resonance helps move more air to the cylinders. The AEM also monitor fuel trim correction factors and all OBDII sensors during R&D to eliminate leaning the engine out and/or throwing a check engine light.

The AEM Cold Air systems are dyno-proven. Every AEM Cold Air induction system features the highest standards of construction and they are so confident in their fitment and performance that they guarantee them for the life of your vehicle. All AEM Cold Air systems are either 50-state legal or pending (excluding "Off Road" and "Hybrid" systems), include a lifetime DRYFLOW Synthetic air filter and come with a limited lifetime warranty.

To avoid the possibility introducing water into the intake system and hydrolocking your engine, the use of the Air Bypass Valve is highly recommended.

Volkswagen Golf Cold Air Intake System Frequently Asked Questions

Can I install my new Cold Air Intake myself?

If you have a decent amount of technical knowledge and can follow instructions, you should be able to follow the instructions and install a cold air intake onto your Volkswagen Golf yourself. K&N FIPK intakes by far offer the best instructions with multiple pictures, though AEM is close behind.

What kind of power can I expect to get on my Volkswagen Golf from an AEM, Spyder, or K&N FIPK Cold Air Intake?

Power increases vary by application, but you could expect anywhere from a 3-15hp increase under optimal conditions.

Are Cold Air Intakes safe in the rain?

NO CAR should ever be operated during flooding. Unlike short ram intakes, cold air intakes draw air from a relatively low position. Your vehicle can technically ingest water from rain puddles, streams, floods, etc if your car is lowered or the water is deep enough, and damage your engine. To prevent this, you could install the appropriate sized AEM Bypass valve onto your Volkswagen Golf's AEM or Spyder Cold Air Intake, however, we instead recommend switching to your vehicles stock intake system if you anticipate driving through flood conditions. K&N FIPK Intakes do not require bypass valves since their design is higher than AEM and Spyder, and are relatively safe from water ingestion.
